Independent businesses are so important!
They are the personality in any place and bring to life the diversity of the City.
Independents account for around 65% of the approximately 290,000 retail outlets in the UK and are at the heart of local communities throughout the country. Getting involved with Independents Week is your chance to show some love for local retailers that you couldn’t live without.
Independent businesses offer choice, diversity of product and service, tradition as well as innovation, and a more personal service to customers. They are also job creators and contributors to local and national economies.
It’s no secret that shoppers want diversity in their High Streets and independent retailers that give their towns a distinct character and service.
